What caused a fall from grace so sudden that IPCCs insiders now demand Pachauris ouster, and that leads the Indian government to set up an Indian IPCC as a national alternative to the IPCC, declaring that it cannot rely any longer on the organization that its own representative heads?

One answer is Climategate  the unauthorized release of emails in November that showed the duplicity of scientists associated with the IPCC. Unquestionably, Climategate opened the floodgates to the torrent of scandals that have since poured out, seemingly without end. Many of the new scandals, some of them sporting -gate as a suffix, were little known before the Climategate emails were released; many were well known, but not publicized by a compliant press. Their sheer number deserves cataloguing.

More WWF: The IPCCs reliance on the World Wildlife Fund as an authority in Glaciergate was no anomaly. Blogger Donna Laframboise thought to do a search on the IPCCs own site of WWF and found it turned up dozens of times, and was a source on everything from mudflows and avalanches to fish in the Mesoamerican reef.

Greenpeace et al.: Ms. Framboise then checked out Greenpeace and found that this advocacy organization, too, was an IPCC source. For example, Greenpeaces report, The Pacific in Peril, was the sole source for a claim that linked global warming to coral reef degradation. On a roll, she then found that members of other advocacy organizations, such as people from David Suzuki Foundation, Environmental Defense and Friends of the Earth were among the IPCCs expert reviewers.....

Remember when WWF stood for World Wrestling Federation, first they sould have never sold this acronoyn to these nut jobs. Although most of us realize that the old WWF was made up, the new WWF is just following the same tradition all made up. I also think most of the wrestlers have more common sense than these bunch of idiots.

Although I started it as documentation of the ClimateGate Swindle, I have plenty about The Coming Ice Age, err, Global Warming, err, Climate Change, err, what we used to call

"having weather", too--

And yes, it is a swindle- a fraud and a cheat and a scam-- a deliberately designed construct intended to con you out of things you hold dear-- money, and prosperity, and freedom... and a few other things, as well.
